Zombie Prom gets its UK debut at the Landor Theatre this autumn, opening on October 20 and running until the end of November.

Set in the fabulous 1950s, the show tells the tale of sweet teenage girl Toffee, and her "rebel without a cause" boyfriend, Jonny. The two meet at Enrico Fermi High School and fall in love, but the tyrannical principal Miss Strict intervenes, persuading young Toffee to break up with Jonny. Tortured by the betrayal, Jonny drives his motorcycle to the nearby Nuclear Power Plant and flings himself into a nuclear cooling tower. Toffee mourns the loss of her love, until Jonny returns, risen from the dead - as a teenage nuclear zombie...

Will Toffee take Jonny back now that he's a corpse? Will Miss Strict let Jonny finish school? Will the Senior Prom be cancelled? It's a campy, rollicking, romp through America's atomic age from Dana P Rowe and John Dempsey, the writers of The Witches Of Eastwick and The Fix.
